About Author:

As a reader, When i read the first part, i thought that Samar came back to Shalini. I believed that Samar might be the best option for shalini after she undergoing many trauma in her life. When i started the book, it was on a light note, but as i ventured into it, many things related to my personal life events as i had an opportunity to experience long - distant relationship. the book is so simple and elegant at the same time captures my thoughts.

As a brother, I really dont have words to say didi, after reading both the parts. though it doesnt capture your entire life, but it depicts the main part of your life. when i read the first part, i really thought Samar (real name unknown) was the right pair for you. but as i proceeded further in the 2nd part, i got to know that he doesnt match my didi. i can say many reasons for that. but it is of no use now. nothing is going to change now after all these happened. there is a saying that, LIFE WILL TEACH THE SAME LESSON UNLESS WE LEARN FROM IT. on the very first note, if you would have guessed that samar wasnt made for you, many things would have happened in a different way in your life, like your stay in pune, clearing CA, getting awards, establishing yourself in the soceity. i dont know whether its right or not, but i firmly believe that, if someone cheats or uses or misuses me, then i dont have the right to blame the person, instead i should blame my ownself, my ignorance of blindly trusting the person. i should have paid attention to nature's clues to figure out and get away from that person. i failed to do so, which resulted in betrayal, emotionally getting down, and all. I really thank god for saving my didi from Samar. i dont know whether i have the rights to say this, but i feel i do have responsibility to say as a brother, so that my didi's life doesnt repeat itself again. "please dont give yourself completely to anyone, not even to the person whom you may think loves you to the core. because not all are same at all situations. people do change and it is law of nature. only change proves that we are alive. take care of all and love all people around because we might not know who will be helpful for us. but remember the first and foremost thing is to LOVE SELF ". it may sound selfish but it is not actually. love self to love others …

Last but not the least: after reading, pls dont say thank you, because i think sister should never thank her brother because it is the duty of the brother to stand for his sister. I believe myself that i m a true brother for you didii…

let your good work proceed further God will bless you with best in your life didi

Foreword:

“When I first opened ‘Days of Love’, it felt like stepping into a time machine that transported me back to my own past.” By the end, the story made me feel like I wasn't the only one in the world who had experienced this feeling. As many other readers, I was also eager to know what happened when Samar and Shalini met. After reading the 2nd part I didn't feel sorry for Shalini, instead I felt really proud, as she passed all the tests nature threw at her. Though sometimes she slipped, as the proverb says, "Even the mighty elephant can stumble", but it depends whether we give a come back or not. She didn’t just make a comeback; she made a significant one by clearing the most prestigious CA exam, motivating young girls to pursue their dream, educating them for free, etc. This is no easy feat, at the same time, Shalini has proved this isn't impossible. All it needs to remove some people, food and habits from life. Many give up easily thinking trying is harder in life, but the truth is staying in the same place is the hardest. We can't stay and grow, if we need to grow then we must step out from our comfort zone. Relationships are like maintaining physical balance, one side can't stay on top always, both needs to be on same level to maintain balance in life. In a true long distant relationship, what makes the bond stronger is the time spent for the loved ones. Time is not bought but found, not given but shared, not seen but felt, not measured but valued and cherished, even few minutes spent is valuable than many costly gifts in the world. I wouldn't sell this book by recommending, but I am sure that those who want the best in their relationship and achieve in their life, this book will automatically find a place in their book shelf.

Indicating lines

Pg: 11 "because i promised him to make him to talk to a girl on this valentine's day." Please please please, he requested and forwarded his number to me. No one will make his girl talk to another guy, unless he isnt ready to make her his life partner. That too, just for your name asking your own girl to talk to a friend, shows that he is just time passing. Kyunki true love mein possessiveness hota hain aur hona bhi chahiye…

Pg 11: "the world is full of opportunities" just because we experience bad things doesnt mean that the world is bad. world has given us both good and bad. it is we who decide. so mistake is ours, didi

Pg 16: "he will never hurt me intentionally" even after not getting an explanation why he didnt share his sister's or any other friends(girls) number, why particularly ours', that too on valentine's day , conclusion made and judgement written.

Pg 16: "caught him online for around 30 min" "are you spying on me?" "can't talk to anyone else?" "switched off the phone and i cried the whole night" clearly nature showed that we are one among many in his life. this shows how much importance is given to us. this should have opened our eyes.

Pg 25: "What is it that god wants from me?" we always ask this , but we dont ask what god wants to give us? If god takes something from us, then he is going to give another best thing, but we dont see that, we just try to criticise him.

Pg 28: "what is your problem? could you refrain from being sadistic?" if someone truly loves then the word sadistic will never come from their side, whatever might be the situation.

Pg 29: "I completely forgot why i had been angry in the first place" This is the main advantage of getting anger. it is always temporary. when you just control your tongue when you are angry, then many problems won't even arise in life. but it is not as easy as said.

Pg 36: "i believed that either we should be friends or something more, not in-between" in relationships it is not like that didi. a person relate to one in many ways: he is mother when he cares, father when he protects, brother when he teases and plays, sister when he gossips, of course friend when he spends time with you. one is lucky when she gets to see all this in one person

Pg 37: "i wanted him to call me whenever he wished , but i also wanted the opportunity to call him as well" perhaps you should have asked him the same if one cannot her express true feelings in a relationship then what kind of relationship is this? one cant be dominant always, both are co travellers with equal responsibility and authority.

Pg 37: "one shouldnt always be available for someone as it decreases one's self respect" well said, but forgotten immediately forgetfulness - best medicine and worst disease

Pg 43: "why people made decisions like this instead of standing up for their own happiness?" when you truly love someone then you care for them than for self and such decisions have to be made didi

Pg 46: "I just want to say that im in love with you again" this clearly intends that he was someone else after you. if not why this word, again. it should be "i love you forever"

Pg 49: "he teased me about my marriage" when someone shares their dark part that means they are exposing their vulnerabilities trusting that we will save them when needed. that shouldn't be used as a tool to tease even for fun. that too things that haunt should never be used in fun time.
